Problem

A suitcase slides 5 m5\,\text{m} along a platform under the action of three different single forces. (i) A 20 N20\,\text{N} braking force acting opposite to the motion. (ii) A 50 N50\,\text{N} vertical force acting at right angles to the motion. (iii) A 10 N10\,\text{N} force of friction acting opposite to the motion for the entire slide. Which force does the greatest amount of negative work? Write only (i), (ii) or (iii).
